Because Erbao was not serious about making up for her lessons, she stopped going when the capital was the hottest at the end of July. The handsome uncle knew that Erbao's family was rich and could afford a telephone, so he reminded Erbao to call him if he encountered someone who couldn't read - the uncle's family had a telephone.
Erbao studies with his brother in the morning, plays with friends after eleven o'clock, wakes up from a nap to play with his brother, reads after five o'clock, eats and takes a bath after seven o'clock, and watches one or two episodes of a TV series before going to bed.
Dabao, Geng Leilei and Geng Sensen are almost the same.
Their life is simple, Ye Fan is very busy, and Hanka's business is good. When delivering Hanka, he also gives away computers to people in need in the same city, and delivers them to their homes for free. This move makes the customer very satisfied, and the customer is happy to help the sales staff introduce customers. So much so that the Hong Kong City company she invested in was doing well in the mainland, and Ye Fan needed to go to the bank to deposit money in a day or two.
All the salespeople knew that Ye Fan did not own the business alone, and no one was envious when they saw the huge amounts of money.
Yu Wentao's nephew also made a blind analysis with his colleagues, saying that she seemed to be rich. She gave it to the school, Chang Guangrong, to the top students, and to the company in Hong Kong City. Her own index might not be as rich as his family's savings.
Everyone knows that the last sentence is an exaggeration. Ye Fan cannot be so poor.
Ye Fan is not like some people who have a big business. They also talk about making money but can't see where the money is. They can see the money coming in almost every day, so they think it is safe to follow Ye Fan.
The two veterans introduced by Chang Guangrong initially looked down upon Ye Fan's "small business." I heard that people from Hong Kong City wanted to cooperate with Ye Fan, but it wasn't because Ye Fan rushed to ask for cooperation and thought that he could learn something from following Ye Fan.
The two became more practical and their demeanor changed. Once, Chang Guangrong went to the sales office to understand the situation and then helped Ye Fan share the burden. When he saw them, he asked if he wanted to open a clothing factory with him.
The two of them believed in Ye Fan because Ye Fan could talk but not lie. Regardless of whether you have money that month or not, your salary has not been delayed, and the food and accommodation subsidy is a penny. The most important thing is that Ye Fan went to school to learn computers. He is knowledgeable and can be stable for a few years without making a lot of money.
Chang Guangrong used to be a idle little gangster.
The two of them thought that Chang Guangrong would definitely ask Ye Fan for advice, just in case they succeeded with Ye Fan's help. So the two of them recommended their close relatives to Chang Guangrong. Chang Guangrong was not distracted when chatting with the children of the army. The person whose parents are both in government agencies was very sincere when talking about the future, but he didn't explicitly say that we would see samples in one year, win the northern market in three years, win the national market in five years, and sell overseas in eight years.
The end result was that he was rejected by two people. One suspected that he was not a business person - he was able to make money thanks to Ye Fan being at the helm, and the other suspected that he was bragging and not drafting.
Chang Guangrong thought for a long time but didn't understand what the problem was.
It was Monday, August 10th in the Gregorian calendar. The store was not busy, and there was no need to go south for the time being. It rained yesterday and it was comfortable today, suitable for meeting friends. Chang Guangrong bought some fruits and asked Ye Fan for advice.
Ye Fan asked him to describe it again.
Chang Guangrong first explained: "I admit that I was vague and not sincere when talking to the man in the army. Mainly because I was not familiar with him and he couldn't help. But I was introduced by my younger brother. I don't want to cooperate with him." I had the nerve to refuse and simply let him think I was unreliable. But I was very serious about the latter and told him almost everything we talked about on the train that day. Why didn’t he think it was okay?”
"First tell me what you said."
Chang Guangrong briefly described it.
Ye Fan listened patiently to what he said and was speechless for a long time.
"Hey, sister, don't be silent." Chang Guangrong was anxious.
Ye Fan's head hurts: "Who told you to go abroad and go global in the future? I said the northern market can support you."
Chang Guangrong nodded: "I know. If we win the northern market, the whole country will follow. We have a relationship in Yangcheng, right? We win from north to south. The next step is not to go abroad? Can my clothes be borrowed from your trade?" When the company goes out, it’s not nonsense.”
Ye Fan rubbed his forehead: "Where is the trading company?"
"Once Zhang Xiaoming and Wei Jianshe are trained, we can do it."
Ye Fan: "You also know that it takes time? Do people know whether Zhang Xiaoming and Wei Jianshe are black or white? Why don't you talk about taking over the world?"
"Isn't that nonsense?" Chang Guangrong blurted out.
Ye Fan was speechless and wanted to laugh: "For those who don't know, it would be nonsense to hear you talk about taking over the market north of the Huaihe River!"
"Isn't it? Our Hanka has been sold to Yangcheng."
Ye Fan: "I graduated from the Department of Computer Science and I am engaged in computer-related industries. All kindergarten children have confidence in me. If you graduate from the Fashion Institute of Technology and you say that you will participate in fashion weeks abroad, even if people don't believe you, they won't think you are bragging. , I will only think that you are ambitious!”
"All I need is a graduation certificate?" Chang Guangrong nodded clearly.
Dabao couldn't stand listening on the Arhat bed: "Boss Chang, what you lack is not only your diploma, but also four years of professional knowledge."
Chang Guangrong glared at him: "Read your book! Your mother and I will talk about business."
Ye Fan: "Get a student ID card from one of your relatives, then donate a few thousand yuan to the school, or buy a few basketball racks and table tennis tables, and show your support for the Olympics next year. Then send it to the school, and you can go and observe." .”
Chang Guangrong: "What to do with business?"
Ye Fan: "You don't need to take exams, and you don't need to design clothes, fabrics and dyes. You don't need to learn too much. You can only listen to professional knowledge three or four times a week. You can get started in one semester."
"Can it be done?"
Ye Fan thinks it's okay: "You don't need to learn to distinguish fabrics, right? You often go to the workshop and you know sewing machines and hemming machines. You can also talk about styles. You are much better than the freshmen."
"Then others will believe me?"
Ye Fan: "When people see you going to college for your career, they must think that you are determined to do well. Even if you hang around every day, you can still scare people who don't know what's going on."
Dabao agrees with this: "Half a year of study is more useful than a fake certificate."
"Both of you said so, go ahead!" Chang Guangrong didn't dare to say that the more we got to know each other recently, the more he felt like a frog in a well. When talking to the person from the agency, he felt guilty and couldn't help but talk too much. As a result, he was misled by his cleverness. .
Ye Fan: "You want to have dinner at my house for lunch?"
Chang Guangrong nodded when he saw the dazzling sun outside, opened Ye Fan's refrigerator and took a popsicle, "Xiao Ming is still selling popsicles this summer?"
Ye Fan said: "He drove the car to help others deliver it."
"How much money do you make in a day?"
Ye Fan: "One box, twenty or thirty yuan."
"Not bad." Chang Guangrong worked harder than Zhang Xiaoming at first, and he couldn't make as much money. "Where are the people selling food on the roadside at the entrance of the alley?"
Ye Fan asked him to guess.
Chang Guangrong shook his head: "It's hard to guess."
Ye Fan: "The money I spent to buy the store last year has been paid off, and I feel like I will be able to buy a house again after next autumn."
"So much money?" Chang Guangrong was shocked.
Ye Fan: "Don't look at it. It's just eight cents, but citizens from a one kilometer radius come here to have breakfast. By the way, there are cold dishes in the afternoon, and almost all the people who pass by after get off work buy some cold dishes. I feel that the flow is better than that of your clothing store. More.”
"Isn't it possible?"
Ye Fan nodded: "Exaggeration! But his gross profit from selling breakfast and cold dishes is half, and his net profit is almost half."
"Why?" Chang Guangrong didn't understand.
Ye Fan: "I used to rent a house, but now I live in a hotel. I cook on the first floor and live on the second floor. I save on rent, and I don't need a store to sell things at the intersection."
There is no rent, and the rickshaws don’t burn oil, so the gross profit is almost the same as the net profit. Chang Guangrong asked: "Where does he plan to buy a house?"
Ye Fan: "I haven't decided yet. I asked me about the price of a building a few days ago. I said that if you listen to me, just buy a courtyard house. It's more cost-effective to knock down a dilapidated house and rebuild it than to buy a building. I don't know if he listened."
Chang Guangrong was surprised: "You also discovered it?"
Ye Fan raised his eyebrows: "You think so too? Then when the dividends are paid out at the end of the year, you can buy a big one and let your mother-in-law and sister-in-law live in the front yard, and you and your family live in the backyard."
A picture came to Chang Guangrong's mind, which he had seen on TV: "You mean the third entrance to the courtyard? There is a small courtyard at the entrance, with wing rooms for the east and west, which can be used as a kitchen and a laundry room? Then you go into the main courtyard, and behind the main courtyard is the back cover. Houses used to be used by women’s families, and some were also used as warehouses.”
Ye Fan nodded: "That's more or less the case. However, after renovating the inside and outside, the second house can also be used as the main house."
Chang Guangrong: "This kind of house is not expensive, and repairing it may be more expensive than buying an 80-square-meter building."
Ye Fan nodded.
Dabao couldn't help but ask: "Mom, do you have so much money?"
Ye Fan: "Not yet. The company will pay dividends at the end of the year. Mom can afford it and repair it."
Dabao asked: "How about you buy one? I can just have a wing room like now. You can build the back room into a study room and install air conditioning and heating."
Chang Guangrong exclaimed: "You really know how to enjoy it!"
"Didn't talk to you!" Dabao glared at him.
Chang Guangrong waved his hand at him, as if to say, come here, I won't hit you.
Dabao gave him a look.
Ye Fan laughed and said: "Dabao, the old house is leaking air everywhere, the roof is high, and the air conditioning and heating are not able to keep the cold and warm. If you want to install it, I really need to overhaul it, and also need to suspend the ceiling. If I go to the hospital and buy it for 70, 80,000 yuan, the decoration will cost 20, 30,000 yuan. One hundred thousand.”
Dabao thought about it: "It has to be repaired anyway. How about 20,000 or 30,000 yuan if you bought it for broke?"
"It's a pity that there are no such broken ones." Ye Fan said, "If you can find mom, buy it. When you buy it, hire workers to repair it, and then ask Chen Xiaohui to be the supervisor."
Dabao frowned: "Why her?"
Chang Guangrong: "She studies history and knows how to take it apart and put it back together."
Ye Fan nodded: "Otherwise, wouldn't it look awkward to you if it's neither Chinese nor Western, nor Western, nor foreign, nor foreign?"
Dabao was surprised when he heard this: "Is she still useful?"
"Don't say that when you go out. Your grandma will be very sad." Ye Fan warned.
Dabao's heart is not made of stone: "If she doesn't mess with me at grandma's house, I won't mess with her. Otherwise, I won't tolerate her."
Chang Guangrong couldn't help but ask Chen Xiaohui if she wasn't married yet.
Ye Fan first explained that Chen Xiaohui didn't want to have children or be a stepmother, and then asked: "Do you know anyone who is a fan of DINK?" Chang Guangrong didn't have such avant-garde people around him.
"You can ask someone." Chang Guangrong said: "There is no guarantee of character."
Ye Fan nodded.
Chang Guangrong was confused: "Since she doesn't want to get married and is so old, what else is she looking for?"
Ye Fan: "She tends to be careless about the future. There must be a calm and rational person keeping an eye on her. You are not afraid of meeting scum when you are young, but you are afraid of meeting liars when you are old."
"Isn't she highly educated?" Chang Guangrong heard his parents mention the situation of Ye Fan's mother's family, so naturally he couldn't get around Chen Xiaohui.
Ye Fan: "A high degree proves that she can read, but it does not mean that she is well versed in the ways of the world. Do you have the kind of boss around you who is very good at studying and doesn't know how to say hello to her elders when she meets them?"
Not to mention, Chang Guangrong really has such a person beside him.
This person is in a similar situation to Chu Guangming. The difference is that Chu Guangming's grandparents are gone and his parents are still alive. His parents are dead and he lives with his grandparents, uncles and uncles. Chu Guangming needs to make money on his own. His grandparents are farmers, and what they see from the fields is only enough for their own food, and there is no money for him to study.
Everyone loves good students. Zhang Xiaoming is not related to Chu Guangming, but he is so interested in him because he is sensible and good at learning. Ye Fan often asked Erbao to call Chu Guangming to come to her house for dinner. The main reason was that Ye Fan couldn't bear to watch the pillar of the country go astray and end up in jail.
That person's relatives and friends couldn't bear to see him drop out of school, so they gave him some money to send him to middle school. The original plan was to take the technical secondary school entrance exam after graduating from junior high school. Chang's father returned to his hometown to repair his ancestral grave, and Chang Guangrong's grandfather and Chang Guangrong's father were relatives who had never been born in Wufu. His grandfather accompanied Chang's father to the ancestral grave. They chatted for a while on the way. Chang's father politely asked if his family had any difficulties. The people traveling with him asked Chang’s father if they could take that person out.
Chang's father provided financial support for him to go to high school and get admitted to the capital. That one was also smart and successfully passed the exam in the capital. After graduating from college last year, Chang's father did not interfere and he successfully stayed in the capital. Then nothing happened. Then, I didn’t even come to visit Chang’s father during the Spring Festival this year.
Chang's father thought he had climbed to a high branch and asked Chang Guangrong to inquire about it. Chang Guang laughed angrily. He was a loner and a stingy loner. He would not even go to his colleagues' wedding invitations.
Chang Guangrong couldn't help but vomit when he thought of this weird thing.
Ye Fan waited for him to finish speaking and poured him a glass of water: "Are you thirsty? Moisten your throat."
"You're so polite." Chang Guangrong took it with a speechless expression.
Ye Fan: "I think the person you mentioned is quite nice. He doesn't cause trouble and doesn't bother your family. Although he is a bit ignorant, your father didn't expect him to repay his original intention of helping him."
< br>
Chang Guangrong: "Having said that, if the leaders of his unit know that he is a relative of mine, he will not dare to ask others to be promoted if he should be promoted."
"Perhaps they don't want to be successful, but just want to live and die?"
Chang Guangrong shook his head: "Although my hometown is not far from the capital, the poor are really poor. The quality of high school teaching is not as good as that of the towns and villages around the capital. In order to pass the exam, he must not only be smart but also work hard. There is no point in working hard. People who are not enthusiastic can't persist. Come down. But I am determined to get admitted to the School of Finance and Economics and successfully graduate, so why don’t I cherish it so much?”
Geng Sensen hurriedly asked: "Which school?"
Chang Guangrong was startled and looked over at the sound: "Are you there?"
Geng Sensen was always there, just lying on the kang table. Dabao and Erbao were sitting on both sides of the kang table. There was a book shelf filled with ornaments between the living room and the east room, so that Geng Sensen was completely covered.
Geng Sensen crawled to the bedside and asked, "You mean the School of Finance and Economics? Isn't it our school's weird senior brother Chang Shimin?"
Chang Guangrong looked frightened.
Geng Sensen: "Then he is really smart. My mother helped me make up classes, and I repeated my studies before becoming an alumnus with him."
Ye Fan was curious: "Why is it so weird?"
Geng Sensen didn't know where to start, it was really too much to say.
Dabao asked: "Lift up the skirt of a female classmate and peek at the female classmate taking a shower?"
"What the hell?" Geng Sensen glared at him, "There are no such morally corrupt people in our school. Even if students in our school commit crimes, it is because-"
Dabao: “Fake accounts!”
Geng Sensen choked: "——Do you want to hear it?"
Dabao shut up.
"Let me tell you one thing, clothes. The first time I met him was the winter before last year. He went to the cafeteria wearing a torn cotton jacket to eat. Our school subsidizes a lot, so we can still have some leftover for normal meals. Buy a piece of cloth and some cotton for your family to use. It didn’t cost much. At that time, I wondered how poor it would be to wear old man’s clothes every day. Cotton jacket and cotton trousers. He looks inferior. I don’t understand why people with low self-esteem should put away their rags on purpose.” Geng Sensen never told his family. It's already so difficult to look after senior brother, he shouldn't make irresponsible remarks behind his back. When Chang Guangrong said that having his father support him showed that he himself was not poor, Geng Sensen couldn't help but ask: "What does he think? Who is he wearing it for?"
Chang Guangrong: "You ask me? I asked who to go to. Because I wholesale clothes with your aunt, there is no shortage of clothes at home. When he was in school, I gave him a few sets every year. You said that I still don't know what he usually does. Vice virtue.”
Ye Fan: "Didn't you see what he was wearing when you gave him the clothes?"
Chang Guangrong nodded: "I've seen them, clothes with patches. I said I'd change them later." He nodded. I'm not familiar with him, so I can't watch him take them off. To be honest, your second sister-in-law is not related to Chu Guangming. Very close. My father and his grandfather are brothers who have not played in the fifth server. My father, Hui Hui, and Chu Guangming are in the same situation.”
Ye Fan: "A level farther away than my second sister-in-law and Chu Guangming? Should he call you uncle?"
"Yes!" Chang Guangrong frowned, "It's just deliberately looking for trouble."
Dabao: "Did he think that he was pitiful and in need of charity as soon as you gave him clothes?"
"No -" Chang Guangrong was anxious, "What is charity? Those are new clothes. Do I have a lot of money to burn, or am I overflowing with compassion and giving new clothes to others?"
Dabao couldn't help but said: "Don't be impatient with me. If you want to give me new clothes, I will give you as much as you want. If I can't wear them all, I can give them to Chu Guangming and me."
Chang Guangming glared at him: "I just want good things!"
Ye Fan couldn't help but laugh at what he thought was pretty good: "I wanted to say just now that his emotional intelligence won't work in government agencies. In the future, if you set up a clothing factory, ask him to be your accountant. Now it seems that if you ask him to be an accountant, , he may also think you pity him.”
"I don't dare to provoke him." Chang Guangrong, a member of the society, looked frightened.
Ye Fan nodded: "You can't mess with him. He doesn't socialize with others, and he doesn't go out to spend money. He has nowhere to vent the frustration in his heart. Sooner or later, he will be full of it."
Chang Guangrong seemed to have found a confidant and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Yes! I didn't dare to mention it to my father. I didn't know what Sen Sen was talking about before, and I don't think his face is as pleasing to the eye as Chu Guangming."
Ye Fan: "Chu Guangming didn't suffer any crime before he was eight years old. After he was eight years old, he lived with his grandfather. His grandfather only had one grandson, and he was very precious. The real life change was when his grandfather passed away."
Chang Guangrong: "It happened that your second brother and second sister-in-law were there that time."
Ye Fan explained that Zhang Xiaoming and Han Dawei often visited him. Chu Guangming was not particularly suffering at that time, so his temperament did not change drastically.
Geng Sensen was surprised: "Don't he have uncles and grandparents? A big family, it's much better than Chu Guangming."
Ye Fan thought of a possibility: "What if his uncle is Zhang Xiaojun and his aunt is Wang Aihe?"
Geng Sensen gasped.
Chang Guangrong heard Zhang Xiaoming talk about his family affairs, and naturally knew that Zhang Xiaojun and Wang Aihe were a tortoise and a bastard: "It's not impossible. I've seen it before in rural areas. If you don't beat, scold, yin or yang, your words can cut into people's hearts more than a knife." ." He paused, "So you don't blame him for having an awkward personality?"
Ye Fan: "No one is born that complicated."
Chang Guangrong sighed: "I sympathize with him, but I don't want to get too close to him."
After the words fell, Yu Wentao came in from outside, greeted Chang Guangrong and said, "Don't leave at noon."
Chang Guangrong smiled and said: "I won't leave."
Yu Wentao asked: "How about making dumplings?"
Chang Guangrong quickly said: "No need to bother, just steam some rice and stir-fry some vegetables."
Ye Fan: "With more people in the family, we can make dumplings faster." Then Dabao was asked to chop the dumpling fillings, Geng Sensen was asked to pick vegetables, and Erbao was asked to make noodles.
Yu Wentao said: "I'm making noodles. Her hands are weak. Erbao, will you help grandma roll out the dough later?"
Erbao nodded: "Mom just likes to ask me to work."
Ye Fan: "I earn money to support you, do you still want me to do this?"
Erbao's brand-name clothes were all bought by Ye Fan. I can't afford it with Geng Zhiye's salary. Erbao didn't dare to talk back to her mother: "Mom, thank you for your hard work."
Ye Fan was reluctantly satisfied: "That's pretty much it."
The meat I bought in the morning was in the refrigerator. I planned to cook it at noon and evening, so I put it in the cold fresh layer. Take Yu Wentao out, wash it and cut it. Yu Wentao cut it and gave it to Dabao, who came to the main room to enjoy the coolness under the fan.
Many people in the family do things quickly, so Chang Guangrong will eat steamed dumplings and boiled dumplings after twelve o'clock. Ye Fan also made two cold dishes, one cucumber and one white sugar tomato.
Cucumbers and tomatoes are both grown in the garden. Chang Guangrong ate cucumber and said, "It is still convenient to have a small courtyard." Then he added, "But sometimes it is not convenient."
Ye Fan: "Isn't it as convenient as building a building to lay a sewer pipe in the bathroom that leads directly to the sewer?"
Chang Guangrong instinctively wanted to ask, is it okay? Suddenly it occurred to me that if a toilet is installed in a major renovation of the house, why not?
When he got home, Chang Guangrong told his wife that when he got the dividends from the computer company, he would buy a big house and renovate it inside and out.
Chang Guangrong's wife also filled the spittoon, but it was rare that she didn't say to save the money.
At noon the next day, Chang Guangrong returned to his parents' house and told his parents that he probably knew why Chang Shimin was so heartless.
There are also Chang's father's cousins in his hometown, and their relationship is as close as Dabao and Sensen. Chang's father wrote a letter to his brother and asked Chang Shimin's aunts and ladies about their temperaments. He specifically emphasized that he knew both the good and the bad.
In terms of closeness, Chang Guangrong's cousin is related to his family, so he wrote down everything about Chang Shimin's family, including their nicknames.
Chang Shimin read the five eloquent pictures patiently and was sure that Ye Fan was right and that the outside world had very little influence on Chang Shimin. Although Chang Shimin's grandparents loved him and put the whole family's hopes on him, he couldn't breathe and wanted to give up. However, his intelligence and talent, as well as the praise and praise from the outside world, made him unwilling to fall. His family members reminded him all the time. , the poverty at home cannot be wasted, it has become so distorted over time.
Chang's father asked his son: "Do you think I'm talking to his father?"
"Don't!" Chang Guangrong stopped him. "You said that Chang Shimin has a job now and doesn't need to be so frugal. People will think that your salary is high. You don't know how difficult it is for ordinary people. You want to say that even if Chang Shimin's character is very capable, he will not be a leader. If you dare to promote him as a leader, he will ask you to put Chang Shimin around. It is difficult for both subordinates and leaders to talk to such an unsociable person. How can you use it? "
It's a pity for Chang's father. When Chang Shimin was admitted to college, Chang's father even complained to his comrades that the child he supported had promise.
Chang Guangrong changed the subject and asked his father to help Chen Xiaohui find a partner. Chang's father thought of Ye Fan's father who had been in the Air Force for many years: "Aren't pilots better than us who carry guns and mount cannons?"
